  • AI increasing disgruntled employees?

    AI increasing disgruntled employees?
    2026/06/08
    In this episode 266 of the podcast I am covering a topic that has been much discussed among the Real Employment Law Advice team and which is causing increased stress and time for employers and managers, the use of AI by disgruntled employees. We are seeing a significant increase in AI being used by employees to draft grievances, prepare complaints, challenge decisions and fuel their desire to pursue Employment Tribunal claims. In this episode of the podcast I cover: Trends we are seeing on a practical levelImplications for employersThe challenges of seeking to resolve disputes when employees have inaccurate AI 'advice'How AI is changing employee expectationsWhat employers and managers can do to mitigate the risk of disputes arisingWhat employers and managers can do to limit situations escalating when issues do ariseWhy taking proactive steps to be a good employer is your best defence Key takeaways: AI is here to stay and more and more employees will access 'advice' from their AI assistant in future and it is those employers who take the time to invest in good robust processes and procedures and truly look after their employees who will find that the time investment now will pay dividends later on. As a member of our HR Harbour Membership service we can help you to be the best employer you can and truly mitigate the risk of spurious and time consuming AI driven disputes.

    2026/05/12
    Employment Tribunal awards compensation for an employers failure to make adjustments in the probation period In this episode 265 of the podcast I am covering a recent case decided by the Employment Tribunal where an employee was awarded compensation after the employer failed to make reasonable adjustments in the probation period. The case of Ms Khorram v Capgemini emphasises the importance of effectively managing probation periods and the requirement to make reasonable adjustments for employees with neurodivergent conditions. In this episode of the podcast I cover: When you need to consider reasonable adjustmentsWhat reasonable adjustments to consider for an employee with ADHDWhy probation periods matterWhen to obtain medical support and/or an occupational health assessmentWhy compensation for Ms Khorram was limited by the Tribunal Key takeaways: Employers need to ensure managers are trained and aware of the importance of following occupational health advice and making reasonable adjustments for an employee who is placed at a disadvantage at work due to their disability. You need to have good probation processes and regular communctaion in place.

  • Effective Management of Probation Periods

    Effective Management of Probation Periods
    2026/04/27
    This is going to be critical for all new employees from the 1st July 2026

    In this episode 264 of the podcast I am covering the critical change to how managers and employers deal with probation periods for any new starters from the 1st July 2026.

    The qualifying period for unfair dismissal is going to be the shortest period it has ever been from the 1st January 2027 and this means employers need to prepare and manage probation periods and the first few months of a new employees employment carefully and proactively.

    Managers need to be educated on this now!

    In this episode of the podcast I cover:

    • What probation periods are
    • Why probation periods matter
    • What is changing from the 1st July 2026
    • Why you need a good robust induction and onboarding process
    • The importance of setting clear goals and targets for new starters in order to measure their performance and progress as soon as possible
    • How getting it right does not have to be hard but does take time and planning
    • Why having good forms and workflows for the process will aid managers to get the probation period right
    Key takeaways:

    Employers need to ensure managers are trained and aware of the importance of the induction process and probation period.

    You need to have good forms and workflows for managers to follow.
